Egypt back on the Travel Market

Thomson and First Choice have resumed travel to Luxor since February 23.

The operator says that its overseas staff are in the middle of auditing its hotels in the destination to ascertain they are safe and meet with strict health regulations.

The move follows the Foreign Office change in advice on travel to Luxor.

The operator added that since the FCO advice to Cairo, Alexandria and Suez remained unchanged, all excursions to Cairo would remain suspended.

A statement from the operator adds: “We are pleased to confirm that the situation in the tourist resorts of Sharm el Sheikh, Hurghada, Taba, and Marsa Alam continues to remain safe and is operating business as usual.

“The safety of our customers and staff in the country remains our top priority. Egypt is a very popular holiday destination amongst our customers and as the FCO advice has now changed for Luxor, and it is safe to do so, customers can now enjoy the holiday they have booked and paid for.”
